Demon Slayer: The Journey That Began When I Became Yoriichi's Sister

Chapter 688 This woman can't be trusted



Chapter 688 This woman can't be trusted

Rewind slightly to when Ikuko unleashed her Bankai and came into contact with Kyoraku Shunsui and others.

Not far from the Hill of Twin Killers, Ye Yi stared solemnly at the hazy, semi-circular black curtain on the hill.

Could it be...

Yuko really wanted to stop everyone by herself.

Is it possible? Although it possesses the spiritual power to devour Shuangji, Shuangji is said to have the power of a million Zanpakuto combined, but as Yuuko said, a million small fry are no match for it.

Its only advantage is the ability to instantly vaporize souls, so the boost to Yuuko's spiritual pressure is unlikely to be very significant.

Ok?

What does it mean to suddenly switch to slow motion?

Under Yoruichi's bewildered gaze, Yuuko slashed Kyoraku Shunsui with her sword, then swept away Toshiro beside her, and then sent Soi Fon flying with brute force.

Wow, you've got some skills.

Taking out a veteran captain right at the start... Yeah, right! Wasn't that your teammate?!

What's the point of attacking your teammates like this?

Before Yoruichi could continue her rant, her frustrated expression changed again.

Soi Fon seems to have been flying for a while...

Is Yuuko's strength really that exaggerated? She's almost flying off Shuangji Hill...

Yoruichi's slightly confused expression suddenly changed.

Why is the password pointing towards her from this direction?!

Is it a coincidence? It must be a coincidence, right?

Soi Fon should be able to regain her footing soon and return to the battlefield...

Soi Fon adjusted her position in mid-air, a surge of spiritual pressure beneath her feet, and with a sudden stomp, she propelled herself forward at an even faster speed.

It's no coincidence!

Yuko the Password!

Yoruichi cursed under her breath. That bastard Yuuko, did she just throw a hot potato in her face like that?!

Didn't she already say she would do it?!

"Whoosh!"

With a whooshing sound, Soi Fon slammed on the brakes in front of Yoruichi, and the two were locked in a strange standoff.

Yoruichi: "..."

Do we really have to do this?

No, the key issue isn't whether it's shameful or not; would doing that really be useful?

This stalemate couldn't go on, so Yoruichi raised her hand with a chill running down her spine: "Okay, it's been a long time, Soi, little... Soi Fon."

She wanted to imitate how Yuko addressed Soi Fon, trying to get closer to her, but she couldn't bring herself to say such an intimate term.

Yoru instinctively wanted to cover her face... Well, she would have covered it in front of Yuuko, but in front of Soi Fon, she had to admit she still had some idol image to maintain.

With a sigh, Yoruichi lowered her eyelids and walked towards Soi Fon.

Soi Fon instinctively took a half step back, but quickly stopped, placing her fingers on the hilt of her Zanpakuto.

What is she going to do?

The same phrase echoed in both of their minds.

Hey! You jerk, Yuuko! Didn't you say Soi Fon was easy to coax?!

Why do you look like you're about to do something to me?!

Yoruichi gritted her teeth and continued to approach Soi Fon, and the distance between them quickly closed to one body length.

……

Yoruichi's eyes suddenly noticed Soi Fon's slightly tense body.

This child is nervous too...

She suddenly felt much calmer, and looked up to gaze intently at Soi Fon.

Soi Fon instinctively wanted to look away from Yoru's gaze, but she clenched her fists tightly and stared back without backing down.

She didn't know why she made eye contact, but she just didn't want to be looked down upon.

Suddenly, to Soi Fon's slightly surprised gaze, Yoruichi abruptly pulled her into his arms.

Soi Fon's body tensed even more, and her mind went completely blank.

Actually, Yoruichi is pretty much the same.

Oh no, what did Yuko ask her to do?

Yoruichi hurriedly searched her memory and finally remembered.

"I'm sorry, Soi Fon," Yoruichi's voice whispered in Soi Fon's ear, "I didn't take you with me."

……

Quiet.

Yoruichi rested his head on Soi Fon's shoulder, his face covered in cold sweat.

What else is there? What else can be said?

Why isn't Soi Fon reacting at all?!

Just as Yoruichi was in a state of mental turmoil, Soi Fon suddenly gently pushed her away and lightly placed her fingers on the hilt of the sword.

Good luck!

She knew Yu Zi couldn't be trusted!

It's going to be chopped up! It's going to be chopped up!

Just as Yoruichi was getting anxious, Soi Fon knelt down, placed one hand on the hilt of her sword, and said solemnly, "Let's go, Yoruichi-sama."

This was the first time she had spoken since we met.

"what?"

Yoruichi's brain instantly went blank.

Leave? What is this child talking about?

Soi Fon lowered her head, her ears slightly red: "I know, Yoruichi and Ikuko were framed back then, and there was no way they could have taken me with them in that situation."

"So all along, I have been working hard to train myself, waiting for Lord Yoruichi to return."

Yoruichi looked somewhat dazed.

Is this child really that honest?

……

So embarrassing.

How embarrassing!

Yoruichi's toes were fighting inside her shoe, and she was so embarrassed that she just wanted to crawl into a hole.

She coughed lightly and changed the subject, saying, "Um, Soi Fon, what you meant just now?"

"Yoruichi and Ikuko-nee are back to overthrow the Seireitei's rule, aren't they?" Soi Fon looked up at Yoruichi with a fanatical gaze. "I've been waiting for this day!"

"Let that old bastard taste the same suffering as Yoruichi... no, let that old bastard go to hell!"

Even though you were going to fall anyway, are you sure you haven't been brainwashed by Yuko?

The night felt like a fishbone stuck in my throat, and a million curses flashed through my mind.

"Let's go, Yoruichi-sama. Yuuko-nee needs our help." Soi Fon stood up and turned to follow Yuuko's steps.

"and many more!"

At the critical moment, Yoruichi finally came to her senses and struggled to reach out and grab Yoruichi's shoulders from behind, stopping her.

"Yoruichi-sama?" Soi Fon turned around, her ears slightly red. "Are we really going to abandon Yuuko-nee?"

"Although Sister Yu is very capable, there are also many team leaders present."

Yoruichi finally couldn't hold back anymore, and covered her face with a look of utter disbelief: "No, it's not like that..."

"Soi Fon, listen to me..."

……

On the hill of Shuangji, Kyoraku Shunsui looked at the somewhat gray sky and smiled: "Even you, with this level of Bankai, couldn't possibly kill us all before your spiritual pressure is exhausted."

Yu Zi smiled slightly: "Very impressive, you show-off uncle."

“Show-off…” Kyoraku Shunsui’s hand trembled, and he almost dropped the knife.

"As you said, maintaining this field is still a bit difficult for me right now, but you're also wrong about one thing."

"Killing you bunch of small fry is really not that difficult."

"Let's see if we can do it." A figure slowly rose from the ruins. Although Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's clothes were somewhat torn, his eyes were as sharp as a hawk's. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his scorching spiritual pressure rose again, his whole body wrapped in flames that resembled a blazing robe.

"This time it won't be like it was a hundred years ago."

Yu Zi paused for a moment, then looked like she suddenly understood. "Ah, Grandpa, you mean to talk about the seal, right?"

"How could you..." Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's pupils contracted slightly.

This is something only the team leaders should know...

Who is it?

Could it really be Unohana-senpai?

Or is it rotten wood...?

Kyoraku Shunsui was also somewhat surprised. He knew that Yuko might have contacted more than just him, one of the captains. After all, she and Yoruichi were quite popular among the captains back then, especially now that there are still many of their acquaintances among the captains.

Second Division Soi Fon, Fourth Division Unohana, Sixth Division...

As Kyoraku Shunsui was pondering who the traitor was, he suddenly noticed a gaze. He instinctively looked up and saw Ikuko staring at him with a serious expression.

Kyoraku Shunsui felt a strange sense of unease rising within him.

Sure enough, his hunch was right.

Yuko pointed contentedly at Kyoraku Shunsui: "Because, it was this flamboyant old man who told me."

Kyoraku Shunsui instinctively retorted, "I didn't!"

"Don't slander me!"

Yuko, too lazy to listen to his nonsense, looked at Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni with amusement: "Besides, old man, who said I'm afraid of your sealing array?"

"That kind of thing can't deal with me."

"Or is it that you, the captain, have finally realized you can't fight me head-on?"

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni snorted coldly, his sharp eyes fixed on Yuko: "It's useless, you're trying to stall for time."

No sooner had Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni finished speaking than Ichimaru Gin moved with lightning speed, transforming into a sharp arrow and rushing towards the two who had saved Rukia.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's arms were taut, and his spiritual pressure was already circulating beneath his feet.

That kind of spatial movement, without any warning, like the resounding echo of the Great Void... no, even more advantageous than the resounding echo of the Great Void.

He was confident that his Shunpo wouldn't fall too far behind in this close-range performance.

Yuko smiled slightly, showing no intention of stopping Ichimaru Gin.

Before Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni could even furrow his brow, another Instant Step flashed past.

"Varied……?"

Everyone watched in astonishment as Kuchiki Byakuya, who had remained motionless until now, arrived faster than Ichimaru Gin and stood in front of him.

Gin Ichimaru's smiling expression remained unchanged as he swung his Zanpakuto.

Clang!

Blades clashed, and Gin Ichimaru leaned forward, grinning as he said, "Ara ara, the traitor has been found~"

Byakuya Kuchiki's expression remained unchanged, still the same icy face.

Renji and Ichigo, who were with Rukia, widened their eyes upon seeing this scene.

"Hey, hey, hey, that cold-faced beast?"

“Captain…” Renji turned his head with tears in his eyes and roared, “Don’t call the captain a cold-faced beast!”

"...You weren't like this before."

Rukia, who was being held between Ichigo's legs with her back to her older brother and completely unaware of what was happening behind her, turned around immediately upon hearing their conversation: "What are you talking about? What's wrong with my brother...?"

She looked behind her and saw Byakuya Kuchiki's back.

Rukia's pupils dilated slightly, and her expression remained blank for a moment.

"Big brother..."

"So, in the end, he was swayed by his emotions?" Toshiro looked at Kuchiki Byakuya with a disheveled expression, his eyes showing little surprise or anger.

If you put yourself in his shoes, you might react the same way.

“A perfectly reasonable move.” Yu Zi’s lips curled into a slight smile. “But old man, would you like to guess how many of the captains present are your men?”

"Unohana, Kyoraku, Ukitake, Toshiro... Guess who's going to die here now?"

Kyoraku Shunsui's mind went blank for a moment.

Sister! Do you still want to clear your name?!

If it weren't for the feeling in his chest reminding him, he would have been completely fooled!

Kyoraku Shunsui glanced at everyone and saw his best friend shaking his head at him with a serious expression.

Damn it, we're doomed!

Ukitake was fooled too!

The expression accompanying this action is...

"Be careful, her purpose may not be simple."

It hurts.

My chest suddenly hurts a lot.

He must have been stabbed.

Toshiro rolled his eyes quite directly: "You really dare to say that. If you were that capable, why would you be stealing people?"

Yu Zi's eyes flickered slightly as she glanced at him indifferently: "So, a kid is still a kid. Even if he became the captain because of connections, he's not mature enough."

"I'm curious, did the Gotei 13 assign you a vice-captain to handle team affairs? Otherwise, a kid like you probably wouldn't even be able to handle team affairs properly, right?"

Matsumoto Rangiku, who was slacking off in the distance, heard the first half of the sentence and was about to refute it on behalf of her captain, but then she heard the second half...

Yes, that's it!

That outstanding vice-captain is her!

Toshiro rubbed his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead: "I handled it personally!! Including that vice-captain who likes to slack off!"

"Really?" Yu Zi said with a playful expression. "Then guess why they're not laughing?"

"Who knows!" Toshiro blurted out instinctively, before belatedly realizing that the woman was talking about the traitor.

He quickly looked at everyone and found that whether it was Ukitake, Unohana, or Kyoraku, they all had solemn expressions.

"Hey, you guys don't actually believe what she said, do you?"

Kyoraku Shunsui turned his head and forced a smile: "Captain Hitsugaya, I'm entrusting the task of stopping that traveling monster and Vice-Captain Abarai to you."

"I'll have Nanao help you."

At least I truly believed it, because I am now a mole.

Kyoraku Shunsui's heart was dead.

Toshiro nodded solemnly: "I understand."

Yuko shrugged: "Ah, it's okay if it's this captain who has connections. Anyway, he's no match for Ichigo and Renji."

"Matsumoto! Keep up!" Toshiro was numb from the humiliation and had developed a resistance. He ignored Yuko and turned to call his vice-captain to chase after Ichigo and Renji.

"Hi~"

It's so good that I don't have to stand in front of this monster!

Ise Nanao naturally heard Kyoraku Shunsui's voice and followed him.

"Wait, wait for me! I'll help too." Seeing this, Omaeda Nozomi quickly followed after them.

Oh no, oh no, I've finally found a chance to escape!

"Those annoying, conspicuous bags have finally left, but aren't you going with them, Isane?" Yuko shook her head with a smile, looking at Kotetsu Isane next to Unohana Retsu, "The upcoming battle is not one that the vice-captain can stand on."

"Huh?" Kotetsu Isane was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked down at her captain.

Kyoraku Shunsui's pupils contracted; the traitor was indeed Unohana!
